***PIPKINS BACK AT PRACTICE TODAY...***

Mulitple media outlets now reporting that PeeWee was back in practice today.

That's great news.

Yes it is, could this have been stunt by Coach Hoke to put a seed in Saban's mind?

I don't think Brady would ever bother with doing something like that.

Either do I but you never know...

Facepalm....I also do not think Hoke would fake a kid having a neck injury, ambulances and all to gain some kind of advantage. Could you imagine approaching the young kid with this plan? Oy vei.

I digress...great news.

Always great to hear good news once in a while...secondarily for our
depth-hungry D-line, and primarily for the young man's health and well-being.

Great news for the young man and the TEAM!

Good article on the Pipkins injury.

I covered that game for the Bloomington Herald-Times. Needless to say, that was a very scary moment.

Love was their top playmaker, perhaps the top playmaker of the entire MAC Conference.

All of the air was let out of that stadium when that happened. It had gone nuts moments before, when Polk scooped and scored...but as soon as everyone saw what was going on, you could hear a pin drop in there.

Ball State went on to have a helluva season that year (12-0 regular season. Went on to lose MAC 'Ship Game and their bowl game). Probably would have been even better if Love was able to play all of it.
